Installation Notes

To be able to compile the package, the files qrbill.sty, swiss.qrbill-cfg.tex, qrbill_swiss-cross.pdf and qrbill-vocab.csv have to be placed in the $TEXINPUTS path.

To simplify this, you can have a look at the qrbill.tds.zip, which provides an already prestructured variant to be extracted to any tds tree.

Use the Repository directly

The repository provides a l3build script. You can build the documentation by running

l3build doc

This will unpack the package files and build the the docs within build/.

To install the files into your local texmf tree run

l3build install

For further information on l3build and other options please have a look at the corresponding documentation texdoc l3build.
